Wayman Tisdale Decisions Smooth Jazz Music CD Review
By Clyde Lee Dennis
I can describe the latest release from Smooth Jazz sensation Wayman Tisdale for you with just one word… Outstanding!
It's a rare day indeed that I get a CD from an artist that I can truthfully say does not have a bad track in the bunch. I'm more than happy to announce that’s exactly what I must say about this one. There simply isn’t a bad one in the bunch. No fillers here at all.
The CD opens with a great track; Breakfast With Tiffany that I anticipate will be heard on radio stations everywhere, and deservedly so. It’s a really nice track.
Smooth Jazz music fans will recognize some of the well-known contributors on the project including Gerald Albright and Everette Harp plus a few other notables as well.
If you’re a Wayman Tisdale fan, or just a fan of Smooth Jazz music this is a CD your collection simply should not be without.
Overall Decisions is an outstanding release. What I call must have music. I give it two thumbs up and is most definitely a worthy addition to any Smooth Jazz collection. Truly an outstanding Smooth Jazz CD. One of those that is completely void of any wasted time, as each track is simply superb.
While this entire CD is really very good the truly standout tunes are track 5 - Fell In Love, track 6 - Ready Or Not, and Track 10 - Taking The Lord Along With Me.
My SmoothLee Bonus Pick, and the one that got Sore [...as in "Stuck On REpeat"] is Breakfast With Tiffany. Good stuff!
